Mother of Thousands

Vegetative Propagation: small plantlets arise from the edges of the leaves, that will drop and create new plants.

The succulence of the leaves allows for water storage and low surface to volume ratio for the dry environment.

This leave produces a toxin that can be fatal to grazing animals

This plant undergoes a specialized form of photosynthesis that allow the pores to open at night and store the carbon until sunlight is available to undergo photosynthesis. This allows the plant to retain its water by keeping its pores closed during the day (CAM Photosynthesis)
